Thank you all so much! So I'm now in urgent need of a ring sling I guess! At least for after a few weeks of just taking it easy and snuggling. We did fill the freezer with food and tomorrow I plan on finishing every last piece of laundry, mopping, etc. so I won't have to worry about it for a while. We can't really hire a cleaner on our budget and don't have family around to help. Last time I had this surgery (this is #5 for endo) I had an amazing 3 weeks off of work from a generous employer and no babies to take care of! Looking back at pre-baby life I can't believe how easy I had it

I will of course not push myself and will definitely talk to my doctor about all these carrying options and weight limits. Thanks again! And - if anyone has a ring sling for 20ppd or less or a trade let me know.
